Ligue 1 Round 17 saw two top teams clash as Lille faced Nantes at Stade Louis-II. Jonathan David and Bryan Bentaleb led their respective sides to victory, with the former netting twice while the latter providing an assist.

David's performance was particularly impressive, as he scored both goals for Lille. The forward's first goal came early on in the match, as he capitalized on a defensive error by Nantes to slot home from close range. His second goal was even more impressive, as he volleyed home from a corner kick just moments later to put his side ahead.

Bentaleb's contribution was equally valuable, as he provided an assist for the final goal of the game. The midfielder played a through ball into the box that was met by Nicolas Pépé, who slotted home the equalizer for Nantes before the half-time whistle.

Despite being down to ten men for much of the second half, Lille managed to hold on for the win thanks to David's late double. The French striker's form has been a major factor in Lille's recent success, and he will be looking to continue his good run of form against Paris Saint-Germain next week.
